Itinerary
Your private day trip begins with pickup from your hotel, riad, or Café Argana at 8:30 AM. Travel in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle towards the charming Atlantic town of Essaouira. After a short café break, continue through the countryside with a photo stop for the famous goats in the argan trees if they are present (sightings are not guaranteed). Visit a local women's argan oil cooperative to discover how Morocco's renowned argan oil is traditionally produced. On arrival, enjoy around 4–5 hours of free time to explore Essaouira at your own pace. Wander through the UNESCO-listed medina, stroll along the historic Skala ramparts, visit the lively fishing port, browse artisan shops, relax on the beach, or enjoy fresh seafood or a vegetarian lunch. An optional guided walking tour with a licensed local guide is available at an additional cost. Return to Marrakech around 8:00 PM.

About Marrakech
At the foot of the Atlas Mountains, red-walled Marrakech is famed for its maze-like medina, lively main square and tranquil riads and gardens.
Jemaa el-Fnaa, the great square at the centre of the medina, changes character through the day, from juice sellers and snake charmers in the morning to smoke-wreathed food stalls and musicians after dark. The minaret of the Koutoubia Mosque rises nearby as the city's landmark, and the souks spread north in a warren of lanes selling leather, lanterns, carpets and spices.
Top-ranked sights in Marrakech: Atlas Mountains, Tizi-n'Tichka Pass, Jemaa el-Fna (Djemaa el-Fna).
